Cycling AFO
Posted By: Jen Reese on June 15, 2012
I have a patient who presents with isolated plantarflexion weakness to the left ankle. He is wanting an AFO to wear only while cycling. The AFO must fit inside or overtop of the cycling shoe and needs to provide a plantarflexion assist to allow him to push down on the pedal while riding. It can not be a completly solid ankle. I was looking at a design similar to a dorsal night splint that would be able to wrap around the outside of the shoe. Has anyone had any similar experiences to this and can help with some ideas? Thank you, Jennifer Reese Hanger Clinic Lawrenceville, GA |
